Busbar supports can be manufactured from a variety of materials, provided they offer the electrical insulation and mechanical strength required for the application. One common material is glass-reinforced polyamide, which is typically processed using thermoplastic manufacturing methods.

Other materials include Dough Moulding Compound (DMC), Sheet Moulding Compound (SMC), and Bulk Moulding Compound (BMC), which are used in thermoset manufacturing processes.

Through rigorous testing and a detailed understanding of the performance requirements of busbar supports, Termate manufactures busbar supports from three different material types.

Our range of black busbar supports is manufactured from injection-moulded glass-reinforced Polyamide 6.6.

Our range of beige DMC busbar supports is manufactured from glass-reinforced polyester.

In addition, through our CNC machining service, we manufacture busbar supports from GPO3 polyester glass laminate.
